In my position, I can make changes. I can make changes across the entire organization. If John Ireland doesn’t do his job, in his radio broadcast play-by-play, then we would make that change. If the Laker Girls drop down in caliber and couldn’t do a dance number, then we’d make changes there.
You have different schemes for different teams. Some teams blitz a lot, and some teams drop eight in coverage.
When I’m disciplined with my drop and my footwork, I usually throw it pretty good. And when I’m a little bit off, or a little careless in that manner and not dead on to where I’m supposed to be, I’m not as good. So that’s one thing – just being disciplined in my drops and my footwork.
From what I saw in Spain and Germany most of the teams drop back and then they have all of the time to build up and have the movements. In the Premier League it is more physical and about set plays. It is more difficult.
I was very nervous about everything. I was the girl who would burst into tears at the drop of a hat.
I live in this apartment building, and everybody who lives there thinks of me as a housewife. People drop their babies off with me. Or I get notes: ‘I’m going to be gone for three days. The keys are under the mat; take care of the cats.’ Because they all think I’m home all the time.
You used to be taught to let the ball go as far as possible and then drop it on the runner, whereas now it might be even more advantageous to direct the ball in front of the bag and get the guy on the leg.
There’s two systems of health care: the one for the rich that’s really good, then there’s the one for the inner city, where they leave ladies in the emergency room unattended for 24 hours until they drop dead.
As you get older, some top notes drop off and bottom notes appear, which I quite like. You listen to Leonard Cohen or Johnny Cash, and you see the advantage of the lower end.
Sure, things could always have been done better, but I just wish people would drop their political hammers for a few weeks, as happened in 2001, and work on the problem at hand.
I was the kind of kid whose parents would drop him off at the local town library on their way to work, and I’d go and work my way through the children’s area.
When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives.
I like roller coasters that have the one 70-foot drop.
The rain begins with a single drop.
I think singing and acting go hand in hand. Take an R&B singer: one song says, ‘I love you,’ the next is, ‘Baby, don’t leave me’, the next is, ‘If you leave me I don’t care.’ You have to drop in and out of different perspectives.
Older fatherhood isn’t all bad: testosterone rates drop about 1% per year as men age, making them less reactive and more patient, and a professionally established middle-aged man is likely to have more time and money to devote to his kids than a twenty-something who’s just getting started.
It isn’t that easy to drop character, especially when you shoot for 12 to 16 hours a day for six months.
Maybe at 87 you slow down a drop, but between 44 and 64, there is no difference.
I’m going to retire hopefully like Cary Grant did. I’ll be on stage telling a story, everyone’s going to applaud and laugh, and then I’ll drop like a rock.
The Hebrew Bible contains multiple provisions to ensure that no one would go hungry. The corners of the field, forgotten sheaves of grain, gleanings that drop from the hands of the gleaner, and small clusters of grapes left on the vine were to be given to the poor.
I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
When we drop fear, we can draw nearer to people, we can draw nearer to the earth, we can draw nearer to all the heavenly creatures that surround us.
My parents were always supportive. They didn’t say, ‘Get a real job.’ They believed in the arts, and they prepared me to be skilled. I’m lucky I can drop into these worlds – into a studio or onto a set or go on stage – and feel comfortable.
Most of the time throughout my day I like to keep it light. Go to the mall or drop by a friend’s house, go talk with my family. And then after that it’s studio. Studio is kind of a process. It’s like an all day thing.
I have a very high love for the game. My mom would always drop me off at the YMCA downtown in Flint, and I’d stay there all day. If she couldn’t take me, I’d take the bus there and be there until she’d pick me up when she got off work. I’ve always had the love for basketball.
But, of course, she didn’t mean that she was going to retire from public life and only when the Queen removed her HRH some years later did she actually drop a hundred charities and just kept five.
I take care of my kids every day. I drop them off at school and pick them up whenever my wife is too tired.
A ‘modern’ man has nothing to add to modernism, if only because he has nothing to oppose it with. The well-adapted drop off the dead limb of time like lice.
I’m always picturing her, whenever I make a catch, her reaction. And sometimes, when I drop a ball, I’m like, ‘Darn it. I let my mama down.’
If I find myself just not feeling like writing songs anymore, I think I’ll drop it. There’s enough bad, insincere music out there. I don’t need to contribute to that.
I put on about 20 pounds to play Washington, and that was really enjoyable. That’s probably the most fun I’ve had preparing for a role. There were only two weeks between ‘Sons of Liberty’ wrapping and ‘Complications’ starting, so I had, basically, two weeks to drop 20 pounds, and that was the opposite of fun.
Boys are 30 percent more likely than girls to drop out of school. In Canada, five boys drop out for every three girls. Girls outperform boys now at every level, from elementary school to graduate school.
I have a responsibility to diversity onstage, but one of the things I’ve heard about our production of ‘Boys’ is that it’s a bunch of white guys. Well, race is a component of this play. You can’t just drop people in willy-nilly and say, ‘Well, we’re going for diversity.’
Whatever causes you to drop your plan forward and open to your vision, your own, deeply personal vision of what your life could be at its very best, that’s what I call meeting your rhinoceros.
I’m the only member of my family who didn’t get a PhD. So, I’m like the failure of the family, cause all I have is a bachelor’s, like a drop out.
No more war! Never again war! If you wish to be brothers, drop your weapons.
I live in the Village, and the way it’s been, people sort of drop in on me and my husband. My husband is Robert Nemiroff, and he, too, is a writer.
They consistently hobble artists’ in the name of selling more units then are surprised when the fans don’t buy the lukewarm music this produces. So they then drop the artist.
I really want to fight Ronda. The problem is, I can’t drop to 135.
The surest way to return to the people’s business is to listen to the people themselves: We need to drop this whole scheme of federally controlled health care, start over, and work together on real reforms at the state level that will contain costs and won’t leave America trillions of dollars deeper in debt.
I have lived a long life, and I am proud that I spend the whole of my life in the service of my people. I am only proud of this and nothing else. I shall continue to serve until my last breath, and when I die, I can say, that every drop of my blood will invigorate India and strengthen it.
A jug fills drop by drop.
Scotland was home to me from when I was 12 up until I was 22. I decided to drop my English bit, and when anyone asked where I came from, I always said Scotland. It really shaped the fibres of my being.
Before I drop in, I tend to knock on my snowboard. You know how when you jinx yourself, they’re like, ‘Knock on wood.’ My snowboard’s wood, so in case I jinxed myself sometime in the past, I just knock on my board. It just makes me feel a lot more comfortable.
I think my dad’s rebellion is that he’s super accepting – I mean, he, like, encouraged me to drop out of university. And to do acting.
‘Retirement’ is a dirty word. Luckily, I can carry on working until I drop, provided I retain my mental abilities.
In petrol stations on the motorways where people have left the place looking messy, I clear up each lavatory I happen to have occupied. When people drop paper on the ground, and everything like that, I pick it up, put it in the lavatory, and make that room look nice.
When you drop the ball, it’s not about, ‘Oh, he can’t catch,’ or none of that. If you put time into something, of course you can catch. I wouldn’t have got drafted if I couldn’t.
You know, as I do, actors who, having become worldwide celebrities thanks to a TV series, complain of their lot and declare themselves ready to drop it all.
I just think that’s the key to all of the quarterbacks throughout the league. You want to have a consistent drop, a consistent balance in the pocket so that you can really get everything into the throw, so that you are throwing with good velocity.
Markets have long been at the centre of communities, not just somewhere to drop in and grab a bag of groceries, but a hub, a meeting place, and always a place to stop and eat.
Usually, when a young girl is pregnant, she drops out of school and concentrates on being a mother. I thought that’s what I had to do, but my counselors told me there was no way they would let me drop out. I had too much promise.
